The tyres were a good price though.....

At first they said they'd have to send the ABS off for something. When I reminded them of my research they miraculously fixed it within 24 hours at a cost of over £400. I asked for a breakdown of the costs to which they replied it would be impossible due to the level of work.. They never gave me an adequate explanation as to why it took so long. Avoid at ALL costs.

I've always been able to book vehicles in within a few days or in case of urgent repairs they have usually been able to source parts and get me back on the road quickly.

As someone who knows absolutely nothing about cars, any visit to the mechanic usually filled me…read morewith an absolute dread as to exactly how much of my hard won savings were going be instantly obliterated. That's why I was always searching for one of those golden friendly honest mechanics who would do a great job and never rip you off! I think I can totally say that the guys at PG Autos fit this bill exactly! I discovered them a year or two ago when I needed a new clutch for my Ford Ka , and as it was such a straightforward problem I thought I would ring round to get a few quotes, and I was totally surprised at the results. I got such a range of answers, mainly from £280-£400, from garages all offering exactly the same service! That is except PG Autos who offered to do the job for £180, a total bargain. Since then my whole family go to PG Autos for our MOT's and anything else that needs fixing and they always go out of their way to get you the best deal. It is great to have a mechanic you can trust!

Millard's Motor Accessories is a sprawling motor supplies shop that has seen me through a few MOT's…read morewithout too much bother. Established in 1955, this shop is the logical choice for people who drive 'vintage' vehicles (as I like to call my 27 year old truck, and my aging Suzuki run-around). Millard's carry a dizzying array of stock, all stacked neatly in boxes on shelves that reach for the ceiling. If Millard's don't have what you're looking for, then you are probably out of luck. Business hasn't been brisk of late, but there's been a steady trickle of loyal patrons, who like me, prefer to avoid the pitfalls of buying off the internet. I've bought everything from fuses and bulbs that are probably out of production, to hoses for Gerri cans here, and am always enthralled when the owner retrieves the correct box of sundries from a wall of similar looking storage containers. How does he do it?

They are great for advice as well, i had something wrong with my water bottle and the chap came to take a look, recommended a solution to pour into it and since then *touch wood it's been fine since :) They sell bicycles, car maintenance books, car security items as well as car parts. The prices are reasonable and if they can't help you they'll recommend you usually to someone they know. My dad, my sister and I all use millards and we've always been very happy! Def my go to car guys.

This was my first car and needed a garage quick, what a big mistake... Took it to these guys and left it with them for the day. On coming back was told by the mechanic that he'd had it up on the ramp and that I'd need a new gear box and it would set me back £800, while all the time being unable to look me in the face, rubbing his chin and breathing in through his teeth like a cliched plumber telling you "its going to be expensive". Obviously the guy thought here was a young mug he could rip off, suffice to say I declined the repair job. Later on I jacked the car up myself in the middle of the night with a only a puny torch it took me 30 seconds to realise the CV boot joints had split, a job which cost a couple of quid and a hours labour at another garage.

I was advised by another "big brand" high street garage that it was showing signs of head Gasket failure and the cost... in excess of £700 to repair. I dropped in here for a second opinion and was advised that is was in fact the coil pack which had gone, replaced at a fraction of the cost. My car has never run so good and I should have had it looked at sooner. I never leave reviews on the internet but feel I should for this little gem of a garage.For the first time ever I have driven away from a garage without that feeling I have just been ripped off. There is a reason this man has been there for 26 years! Thanks. An Extremely happy customer.

After a recent MOT they quoted very reasonable prices for the work it needed to pass and, surprisingly, a good price for a tyre that needed replacing. They have been quite happy to fit parts that I have provided for them and, unlike a lot of other garages I have used in the past, are very prompt to call me when the work is done, leaving messages when I have not been able to answer the call. In my experience I find them very knowledgeable and will continue to use them for MOTs, servicing and repairs while I own a VAG car.
